Choosing Between Mustang GT and EcoBoost in 2025

The 2025 Ford Mustang lineup gives drivers two exciting entry points: the EcoBoost® and the GT. Each delivers classic Mustang styling and performance but targets slightly different drivers. Whether you value efficiency or raw V8 power, both trims carry Mustang heritage forward. At Cronin Ford in Harrison, buyers can compare both versions side by side to choose their perfect pony car.

Why Pick the EcoBoost®?

The Mustang EcoBoost® features a turbocharged four-cylinder engine that balances strong acceleration with better fuel economy. It’s lighter on the front end, providing agile handling and sharp cornering. Drivers get plenty of power for everyday thrills without the fuel demands of a V8. It’s a smart choice for those who want Mustang style with more efficiency.

Why Pick the GT?

The Mustang GT comes with a legendary 5.0L V8 engine, delivering the rumbling exhaust note enthusiasts crave. It’s built for straight-line performance and strong highway passing power. With upgraded brakes, suspension, and available performance packages, the GT is ready for track days as well as street driving. This is the Mustang for drivers who want uncompromising performance.

Making the Right Choice

Both trims share modern interiors, SYNC® infotainment, and advanced driver assists, but they appeal to different priorities. The EcoBoost® balances affordability and efficiency, while the GT prioritizes classic muscle car thrills. No matter which you choose, you’ll get an iconic Mustang experience.
